I sent an email to their investor relations for confirmation, but I think there's a strong case for it.

Nice research - looks pretty clear cut doesn't it.....on the books for that amount and the below on their website....

"Lending .....com does business as Finance of America Mortgage LLC in California"
"Lending......com is a division of Finance of America Mortgage LLC"

Interestingly it looks like it was The Blackstone Group that bought it in 2015 and they own 70% Finance of America Mortgage LLC

Its a steal at that price, the lending business is highly profitable and this is one of the best names for that category.

I don't think you can call $5.4 million 'a steal'.

I just look at it as a fantastic sale (if confirmed).

I have analyzed the top 100 domain sales. And, found financial category domains always going for a high amount. https://tldjournal.com/top-sales-analysis
